Dust is inevitable — but it doesn’t have to stay on your carpet

Comments 0 | Recommend 0

Advance Cleaning

West Texas weather is typically unpredictable - but during a dry season, dust is something we can always count on. Day after day, we track into our houses with any variety of Texas soil on our boots, sneakers and pumps. And in homes where there are pets, the dogs and cats contribute their share to the accumulation.
 It's good to know that someone you trust can take care of dust, dirt stains and accidental spills.
 For 34 years, Advance Cleaning has been the Permian Basin's premier carpet cleaning service. They carefully and thoroughly clean carpet and upholstery - plus, they remediate fire and water damage.  
 And, to stay current with home decorating trends, Advance Cleaning has introduced the cleaning and repairing of oriental rugs.
 Ever alert to homeowners' needs, owner Holman Padgett and his staff noticed that homeowners were using less carpet in their homes, exchanging it for solid surfaces such as stone, marble, ceramic tile, brick, terrazzo and wood or laminates. Often, these surfaces were partially covered by oriental or custom rugs. In addition, many homeowners chose to place accent rugs on carpet.
 Knowing that these beautiful rugs are often quite valuable, Holman and his staff researched the best methods for cleaning them. Holman attended many schools and traveled to various rug-cleaning plants to educate himself.
 A member of the Association of Specialists on Cleaning and Restoration, Holman holds this organization's highest designation: Certified Rug Specialist.
 The hard work and expense have paid off - Advance Cleaning now has the only rug-cleaning plant in Texas west of Fort Worth that employs total immersion cleaning with a MorTM rinser/ wringer.  In addition to cleaning these rugs, Advance Cleaning also does restoration or conservation. Restoration repairs include edge finishing by hand-serging or overcastting with Patermayon yarn; end finishing, a method that locks the end warp with several different types of end stitches; and re-fringing, which is done by hand to give the rug a new look.  These processes of restoration, combined with pneumatic dusting and total immersion cleaning, will refresh your rug, preserve its beauty and extend its life.
 Oriental rugs have been prized for centuries as beautiful and functional works of art. Advance Cleaning helps ensure that you'll enjoy your rugs for years to come.     Call Advance Cleaning at (432) 362-6864.
